The Best Yoga Studios in Norfolk, VA
If you’re visiting Norfolk and looking for a relaxing alternative to conventional exercise, stop by one of the many yoga studios in the city and get your yoga practice on. From hot yoga and yoga by the beach, to pop-up style and traditional, there is something from everyone. Namaste!
The Space Above
A Yelp favorite, The Space Above, located in the historic Ghent district of Norfolk, offers a variety of beginners classes from yoga 101 and vinyasa 101 to mindful multi-level and strengthening graceful flow. The Space Above is the only studio in Norfolk to offer a comprehensive yoga wall therapy system. They also offer a variety of healing opportunities that include Ayurvedic counseling, Breathwork therapy, massage including Thai massage and Ashiatsu therapy.
Hot House Yoga
Two types of yoga are taught at Hot House: Hot Stability and Hot Flow both of which are structured around a methodology called the Therapeutic Vision, which is based on the anatomy of the body, specifically related to lines of connective tissue. The Therapeutic Vision’s specific emphasis is to strengthen and stretch each one of these lines so that they can properly perform their intended function. The inability of these lines to perform their functions creates imbalances throughout the entire body. Practicing Therapeutic Vision regularly mends these physical imbalances and helps to eliminate stress, anxiety and other toxicities.
Beach Belly Yoga
Beach Belly’s motto is “Yoga is for everybody, and we do mean, every BODY.” This studio emphasizes the benefits of yoga for all body types, no matter what your physical capabilities, size or weight. There are classes for both beginners and advanced students, and the studio also offers chair yoga, Reiki healing, divination readings, guided meditation classes, crystal healing & therapy and even a self-love workshop!
Breathe Yoga Center
